Rating: Summary: One of the most cleverly crafted tales of our time. Review: Giving this book any rating below a ten would be an absolute sin. Once again MHC succedes in weaving an intricate web of terror and delight which soon entagles the reader and refuses to let go until the last page is finished. A young woman, haunted by the repressed memory of a childhood abduction seeks to regain her life and uncover the secrets of her past. Multiple personalities come into play as Laurie discovers that her greatest alies lie within her own mind. Only by reliving her horrible past and by assuming the different roles that she herself created can she hope to unlock the secrets of her past and destroy the very real force that seeks to destroy her future. Simply put, one of the best books I have every read. I'f you've never read it,READ IT! I'f you have read it,READ IT AGAIN! It may be quite some time before Clark or anyone else enthralls us with such an ingenuous piece of literature.
Rating: Summary: Very cool book!!!! Review: Mary Higgins Clark has wrote a very good book. I recommend it to anyone.
Rating: Summary: The Classy Mary Higgins Clark at her Best Review: I am a beginer reader of Mary Higgins Clark. I have only read four books by her and they all have been awesome. She is an impresive writer with a unique style that grabs your heart and renches it out at full force. You can do nothing but get involved with the characters in this book. If you haven't read this book then get out there and read it. It's a can't miss!!!!!
Rating: Summary: Spectacular novel! Review: From the minute I picked up this book and the time it was set down, the clock had moved from 6 to 8 o'clock! A book that makes your knuckles turn white and your legs turn so stiff, you definitely won't want to stay home alone!
Rating: Summary: A story of a helpless girl who has MPS. Review: I read this book straight through on a two hour airplane flight. I could not put it down. I'm usually not into books about psychotic people, but once again MHC has made it interesting, believable, and classy. It is the story of Laurie, who was sexually molested by her kidnappers who creates friends for herself to help her survive the physical and mental torture she recieves. A truly good book.
Rating: Summary: Keeps your heart racing well after the last page is read. Review: This book is a true-insight to the craft that Mary Higgins Clark has come perfect. "All Around the Town" contains murder, mystery, and MPS, perfectly webbed together as only Mary Higgins Clark can, his book is a must-read that will keep pages turning until the end when you can finally sit back and take a deep breath. This is the story of Laurie, who was abducted at the tender age of 4, and who's life was altered forever even after making her way back home. This book explores the existence of MPS (multiple personality disorder) in a way that hasn't been done since 'Sybil'. If you haven't read this yet, you really need to place an order!
Rating: Summary: It was a book you didn't want to put down! Review: I really enjoyed this book for it kept me in suspense till the end! It gave insight to how a people with multiple personalities act. You could really relate and understand what each person was going through.
Rating: Summary: Mary Higgins Clark Does it again! Review: Just another great novel from MHC! I have been a MHC fan for many years of satisfied reading. She seems concerned about her characters and surroundings being believable to her readers, I like that. She made us believe the MP in All Around the Town. I like her short chapters that make you keep on reading and reading and reading! I hope she writes novels as long as I am able to read! I just found Amazon and am very pleased to find Eyes! I spent lots of time watching the book stands for MHC novels and now Eyes can do it for me! If you like suspense novels you will love MHC! Try one and you will be hooked
Rating: Summary: STASEY TACKETT HAS ONE WISH: TO WRITE A BOOK THIS BRILLIANT! Review: I have a sister, and I would only hope she could be as believing in me as this poor kid's big sister was. Only MHC can write about bloody knives and chicken heads and make is classy. MHC addresses child abuse head on: she speaks to the fact that there are many parents who would be so glad to get their kid back, they wouldn't ask questions! They would attribute strange behavior to ANYTHING but abuse, even though the kid was kidnapped and gone for many months. This story addresses what abuse can do if left un-counseled. I got chills on my back when the first alter made itself known on the cold stoop in the night, telling the child, "Fraidy cat...fraidy cat." What can I say? It was an incredible read
Rating: Summary: Excellent, thrilling, adventure Review: This book was definately one I would recommomend to my friends. When reading this book I also learned about the disease called MPD or Multiple Personality Disorder. It was interesting to see how this disease took over the woman's mind due to shocking incident when she was a child. It was amazing to see the recovery she made despite her kidnappers evil plan to get her back and get rid of her. This is one of my favorite books by the world's best author, Mary Higgins Clark!!
